EA releases 25 classic games, including seven remasters
EA has released 25 classic games on Steam, GOG and its EA App.
The collection includes games from series such as Wing Commander, Ultima and Crusader, as well as Theme Hospital.
Seven titles are remastered editions, including Road Rash and six Wing Commander games.
EA says it digitized archival tapes to recover lost footage and restore more than 1,500 cinematic scenes across the remasters.
The updated editions aim to preserve the originals while improving support for modern systems and controls.
The games are available now, and GOG users are getting only the remasters as new additions because its store already had the other games.
Electronic Arts released 25 classic games on Steam, GOG and the EA App on November 5.
Seven titles are remastered Anniversary Editions, including Road Rash and six Wing Commander games.
The other 18 titles are re-releases rather than remasters.
EA said the remasters use recovered archival material and include updates for modern systems and controls.
The restored footage includes more than 1,500 cinematic scenes across the seven remastered games.
